PWR-IE170W-PC-AC Description
PWR-IE170W-PC-AC is a Cisco Industrial DIN-Rail 170W power supply for PoE-capable industrial Ethernet switch deployments, listed as PWR-IE170W-PC-AC= for AC-to-DC or high-DC-to-DC input. It uses a hardwired input, supports AC 100-240V at 2.3A or DC 125-250V at 2.1A, and provides 54VDC output at 3.2A with a 170W maximum output rating. The supply fits industrial PoE power designs for Cisco IE 4000 and IE 2000U environments where the switch and PoE ports must stay within the available power budget, with an IP20 enclosure rating and a -40C to +75C operating range for DIN-rail cabinet deployments.

Application Scenarios
PWR-IE170W-PC-AC fits IE 2000U PoE designs where Cisco maps the 170W module to maximum PoE and PoE+ port support in an AC or high-DC environment.
Cisco lists this 170W AC or high-DC supply in the IE 4000 Series power-supply table, where the switch and PoE load must remain within the supply budget.
Service teams can keep this SKU for hardwired AC or high-DC cabinets and reserve PWR-IE170W-PC-DC= for sites built around low-voltage DC input.

- In a PWR-IE170W-PC-AC vs PWR-IE170W-PC-DC comparison, the main difference is input range: PWR-IE170W-PC-AC accepts AC or high-voltage DC input, while PWR-IE170W-PC-DC is the low-voltage DC input version.
- The PWR-IE170W-PC-AC difference from PWR-IE65W-PC-AC is output class. Both support AC or high-DC input and PoE, but the 170W unit provides 54VDC at 3.2A while the 65W unit provides 54VDC at 1.2A.
- In a PWR-IE170W-PC-AC vs PWR-IE240W-PCAC-L comparison, both are hardwired DIN-rail PoE supplies, but PWR-IE240W-PCAC-L moves to a 240W output class and a different AC-only input profile.
- For buyers comparing which model to choose, the order check should start with cabinet input voltage, required output wattage, and whether the industrial site requires the same compliance profile listed for PWR-IE170W-PC-AC.
Selection Guide
1. Match the cabinet feed first
Select PWR-IE170W-PC-AC when the cabinet power source is AC 100-240V or high-voltage DC 125-250V and the installation needs a hardwired DIN-rail supply.
2. Keep low-voltage DC sites on the DC variant
Move the order to PWR-IE170W-PC-DC only when the documented input source is low-voltage DC. The two 170W units share the output class but not the input design.
3. Do not replace 170W planning with the 65W line
Use PWR-IE65W-PC-AC only where the lower 65W output class fits the PoE plan. Cisco IE 2000U documentation separates the 65W and 170W PoE support roles.
4. Check industrial compliance before receiving
Review Class 1 Div 2 or Zone 2, CSA, IEC 61850-3, IEEE 1613, cabinet temperature, and hardwired termination requirements before the supply is released to a field kit.
